Our Verdict

The G.SKILL Trident Z RGB DDR4 32GB (2x16GB) at 3600MHz is the fastest DDR4 kit in this batch. RGB lighting is compatible with Asus Aura Sync, MSI Mystic Light, and Razer Chroma. At $229.99 ($7.19/GB), it costs $20.10 more than the G.SKILL RipjawsV DDR4 32GB 3200MHz ($209.89) and $30 less than the Corsair Vengeance RGB PRO DDR4 3200MHz ($259.99). The 400MHz speed advantage over the RipjawsV is most meaningful on AMD Ryzen 5000, which shows 3–5% gaming improvement at 3600MHz vs 3200MHz in CPU-bound scenarios. On Intel DDR4 platforms, the gain is 1–2% — the RipjawsV at $20.10 less is sufficient. Against the Corsair RGB PRO at $30 more: the Corsair runs slower (3200MHz) and costs more; the Trident Z RGB is the better buy in the DDR4 RGB tier. DDR4 only — does not fit AMD Ryzen 7000/9000 or Intel DDR5 boards. For builders with a Ryzen 5000 platform wanting RGB, this is the correct pick at this price.
